Frequently asked questions
What are Feelikins?
Feelikins are soft, collectible plush toys designed to help people of all ages practice simple self-care and emotional regulation skills. Each character has their own personality, a coping skill they model, and a collectible affirmation-style card.
Who are Feelikins for?
Feelikins are designed for kids, teens, adults, parents, caregivers, and anyone who could use a soft, grounding reminder to take care of themselves. They make thoughtful gifts for all ages and are used in homes, classrooms, and therapy waiting rooms.
Are Feelikins a therapy or medical product?
No. Feelikins are not a replacement for therapy, medical care, or professional mental health support. They are soft, comforting plush companions designed to support everyday self-care and emotional regulation skills.
What makes Feelikins different from regular plush toys?
Each Feelikin is a weighted sensory plush toy with gently bean-filled hands and feet for squeezing, fidgeting, stimming, and grounding. Every character also comes with a collectible card that teaches a specific emotional regulation skill — like deep breathing, grounding, or reaching out to others.
What characters are currently available?
The Original Collection includes Mossy, Nori, Pebble, Pip, Willow, and Tumble — six collectible plush characters, each representing a different self-care skill. More Feelikin collections are coming soon.

Do you use AI to create Feelikins content?
Yes. Right now, we use AI as a creative tool to help bring the Feelikins world to life while we are still in the early stages of growing the brand. But it’s not forever.
AI currently allows us to create cozy scenes, short videos, and character moments before we have the budget for full animation production.
Every character, story, emotion, product idea, and creative direction comes from us. AI helps us visualize those ideas faster, but the heart behind Feelikins is human.
As Feelikins grows, our goal is to hire artists and animators to help us create even more beautiful, consistent, and original stories for each character. AI is helping us get started, but people will always be at the center of where Feelikins is going.
Do Feelikins have weighted parts?
Yes. Each Feelikin has gently weighted bean-filled hands and feet, offering soft sensory comfort for squeezing, fidgeting, stimming, grounding, and self-soothing — making them ideal sensory toys for kids and adults alike.
Do you donate a portion of sales?
Yes — 10% of all profit goes toward supporting children in foster care. Every Feelikin you purchase helps give back to kids who need it most.
How do I care for my Feelikin?
Gently spot clean or hand wash with mild soap and cool water. Air dry completely before cuddling again. Avoid bleach, harsh chemicals, and machine drying to protect the bean filling and soft texture.
